BSP blames UP Govt for Saharanpur violence, sets up party panel to meet Yogi

New Delhi, May 24: BSP supremo Mayawati today flayed the Uttar Pradesh Government for continuous spree of violence in Sharanpur district and has set up a four-member delegation of party leaders to meet Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to press for a probe into the recurring incidents of violence there.
“BJP and RSS are abusing the official agencies to spread an atmosphere of communal disharmony in the area,” Ms Mayawati alleged in a statement here.
She nominated a four member delegation — comprising senior leader and party general secretary Satish Mishra, BJP UP chief Ram Achal Rajbhar and party leaders Lalji Verma and Indrajit Saroj to meet Chief Minister and press for investigation and to book those responsible for violence.
She alleged that these forces have used caste and religious sentiment to come to power in Uttar Pradesh and “now after assuming power they are resorting to caste-based conflicts”.
The party delegation has been also asked to insist on the Chief Minister Yogi that the victims ought to be adequately compensated and the injured provided with free treatment.
